Aloha!
I just got a 50's Road Worn Strat and I absolutely love it. It's an amazing guitar. But I was wondering, with parts of the maple neck and alder wood exposed, is there any special care I should give it? Thanks so much.

That's a good question.

In the "Ask Mike Eldred" forum, he was asked about the Rory Gallagher signature's bare wood. He responded that it was specially treated, so no need to do anything else to it.

I suppose the same might be true of the Road Worn. But if you are worried about it, you might oil it. You don't ever plan on refinishing it, do you?

My other guitar is a Strat.

Hey thanks,
Thanks really helpfu!
No, I love the relic thing and the way this axe resonates. I'll never refinish it.

Good call. Congrats on the new axe!
